One of the best things about Madrid is the (seemingly) unending list of new places to try for drinks, dinner, merienda (snack), and more, and as soon as you try a new place, you catch a glimpse of another new place that opens and there it goes- added to the list of ‘places to try […]
Restaurants in Madrid: Petit Appetit (Monte Esquinza) (8/10)
If you’re looking for a quick and healthy salad in Madrid, I have the place for you! Petit Appetit is a great spot for fast salads or grain bowls, and they’re all made to order, so you get to be in charge. It’s Salad Works meets Whole Foods hot bar. Luis and I went there […]
May Weekend
It’s been so long since I’ve done a weekend post! The weekend started Thursday, as it always does! It was nice and low key, first with some furniture shopping (FUN as it sounds) and then I went to Luis’ for my third favorite food in the entire world! Salad de la mama espanola!!! On […]
Restaurants in Madrid: Dionisos (6/10)
My friend, Annie, and I wanted to try something different for dinner last week. We had Dionisos on our radar since Greek food always looks good (um, hellllooo feta cheese!), and we were in the market for some lighter fare. I had high hopes for Dionisos, since the menu was full of a variety of […]
Weekend by the Photos.
Goooooooooooooood morning and happy Monday! How was the Super Bowl? Any good parties? Good dips? Crunchy chips?? Add: “The Super Bowl parties” to the list of things I sometimes miss about the U.S. I don’t miss the game itself, but I miss the excitement… and the 7-layer taco dip. Super Bowl or no Super Bowl, […]
A Little Bit of Lately.
I feel like I have been writing so many “topic” posts, that I haven’t done any “life” posts in quite some time. A.k.a…pictures that are taking up space on my iPhone…most of which is food. First up, Luis and I had this really delicious meal at Petit Apertit. It was our second (my second, […]
Restaurants in Madrid: Lamucca [de Prado]
Multiple people have recommended Lamucca as a great restaurant for a fun date night, so last night we gave it a go! There are multiple locations (Plaza Carlos Cambronero, Calle Prado, Calle Almagro, Calle Serrano) [#success], but they only had a last minute opening at Calle Prado. This one is near Anton Martin metro stop […]
Restaurants in Madrid: El Columpio
El Columpio Address: 28010, Calle de Caracas, 10, 28010 Madrid Atmosphere: I LOVED this restaurant for their design. Seriously….#housedesigngoals Warm lights, black steel, mirrors, distressed wood, hanging plants and turquoise accents. A great place for a romantic dinner or for a night out with friends. Also, it was big, so plenty of room! Type of […]
Restaurants in Madrid: El Patio del Fisgon
El Patio de Fisgon Address: Calle de Don Ramon de la Cruz, 26, 28001 Madrid Atmosphere: The restaurant was quite small, but interesting design and not too crowded. It was hot, though. Originally, they put us at a table in the center with the waiters walking back and forth, but we asked to move when […]
Restaurants in Madrid: Bar Galleta
Oooooh, how I had been wanting to go to Bar Galleta ever since I saw it the first night I went to Amargo. It´s always full with no walk-ins available, so I was one happy camper to be able to check it out last week! And it did not disappoint!! Bar Galleta Address: Corredera Baja de […]
